UP Board Exams 2023 answer sheets for Class 10th, 12th to be stitched to curb cheating

Instead of simply stapling the pages, the UPMSP will not stitch the pages of the copies found in the board exams.

Uttar Pradesh Madhyamik Shiksha Parishad (UPMSP) has decided to stitch UP Board 10^th, 12^th Exams 2023 answer sheets. The decision has been taken to avoid malpractices by changing copies with meritorious students. All 75 districts of Uttar Pradesh will receive stitched answer sheets from the Board this year.

Earlier incidences revealed that people involved in cheating and malpractices during board exams used to take out the cover of the copy of the meritorious students and put it on the copy of weak children, by taking money from the students. Considering the scenario, the Board has decided to be stricter.

Instead of simply stapling the pages, the UPMSP will not stitch the pages of the copies found in the board exams. As changing the pages of the stitched copy is likely to be difficult for such students it is likely that this step would help in decreasing the rate of cheating during UP Board Exams 2023.

Meanwhile, UPMSP has also decided to monitor the UP Board 10^th, 12th examinations online. CCTV cameras will be installed at the selected exam centres. The Board will set up control room for the connection of these CCTVs and its surveillance. If the connection gets broken due to weak internet connectivity, in such cases, this time only schools with two high-speed broadband connections will be made exam centres. Physical verification of schools will also be done across exam centres to check whether they have two high speed internet connections, voice recorder, and 1-1 CCTV cameras face-to-face in the room.
